Alpaca Launches Fixed-Income Trading, Delivering Equities-Like Experience for Global Retail Order Flow

Alpaca has expanded its Broker API to support trading and custody of US Treasuries, beginning with an initial partner and positioning the company for future additions of other bond products and international fixed-income markets. Its platform aggregates liquidity-provider quotes, routes market and marketable limit orders to competitive prices, reports average processing speeds as low as two milliseconds, and queues orders placed outside US bond-market hours. Alpaca also offers partners price- or yield-based markup models intended to support transparent fee structures, while it is developing fractional Treasury trading with proposed $1 minimum orders and $0.01 increments. The company, a US self-clearing broker-dealer offering infrastructure for stocks, ETFs, options, and crypto, notes that fixed-income investing carries risks including interest-rate sensitivity, credit, liquidity, volatility, and potential principal loss.
